Narbacular Drop is pretty much what made Valve make Portal.
It's Portal, but in a fantasy setting :p

I suggest downloading some extra maps aswell,since the original game is only like 5 levels long.

Pictures:

Hehe, enjoy

I hope the HaloCE version of this will be a little bit more exciting XD

Halo + Portal > Barbie + Portal mkay?

Even though this game has Render-Camera-To-Texture >.>

im remaking the levels of narbacular drop in portal.

my early pic of it.

I dont have any pics of how it looks now though, it looks better now.

I didn't know there was an editing kit for portal?

turk645 · Post by **turk645** » Mon Oct 22, 2007 7:59 am

there isnt, someone went through the portal files and made a config file for the source sdk themselves. They released it so poeple can make thier own maps till the official config files are released.

Since I'm a map making I can say this. The Source SDK update isn't out yet so regular people can't map for Portal, TF2, and EP2 yet, but more advanced users know how to map without having to get the SDK update.

@turk645: Try getting your textures to allign perfectly and I would be happy to test it.

@Everyone else: This is the map I am working on
These are alpha pictures

Lemme tell you how Portal came to be.
There were these kids at DigiPen and for their senior project it was Narbacular Drop. When at their presentation a guy from Valve came in and wanted to take them to Valve to show off Narbacular Drop. While they were showing it at Valve, Gabe Newell stopped in the middle of their presentation and said "Woah, Woah Woah, you guys wanna work for us?"
And they accepted the offer.

Unless I'm terribly mistaken and portal is already out here in Belgium, I asume that the sdk will be availeble when Portal hits the Belgium stores.

I want to make Portal maps :/

@Caboose, nice stuff going on there

How's the hl2 mod you where making coming along?

The AirExchange? canceled due to Team GabeN telling me to not even bother with it.

I just hate how you have to buy the SDK for portal.
